Martin Gusinde Anthropological Museum

The museum occupies two floors with three exhibition halls containing 4,000 pieces that document the regional indigenous peoples and European exploration.

The Chilean Navy established this museum in 1975 to house archaeological materials previously displayed at a local school.

The first floor presents Yahgan myths and indigenous canoe traditions, while the second floor exhibits local flora, fauna, and settlement documentation.

Located at Subida Comandante Aragay 1, the museum opens Tuesday through Friday for 24 hours and Saturday afternoons from 14:30 to 18:30.

The museum maintains the relocated Stirling House, an Anglican mission structure from 1871 that arrived at the premises in 2004.
